Description of the problem	Same as others on site have noted: the 2003 touareg v8 hesitates upon acceleration, resulting in a surge forward when the engine finally "catches." i find this very dangerous. We took it to the dealership; they couldn't replicate the action (unfortunately didn't have time to drive with them to demonstrate -- but will this week). I would also like to ask the nhtsa to help touareg owners by forcing vw to acknowledge this issue and find a resolution before an injury occurs. *jb

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
